CREDITS: These are the AI prompts I used in this tutorial. These prompts and variations were shared in the Artistly FB group by some of the members.
Prompt 1: A soft, naturalistic colourization of a fully restored vintage black-and-white or sepia photograph. Skin tones should be realistic and historically accurate, with careful attention paid to facial detail, eye colour, and hair texture. Clothing and background elements should be colourized to match the time period, with tones that reflect traditional dyes and materials. The overall lighting and palette should emulate classic film photography, using subtle colour gradation and warmth for a believable, non-modern finish.
Prompt 2: A high-resolution, photorealistic restoration of a vintage or antique photograph with visible scratches, tears, stains, or fading. The AI should meticulously repair damaged areas while preserving the original facial structure, textures, and surface detail. The goal is to create a clean, accurate reconstruction that maintains the integrity of the original image without altering historical features. The lighting, grain, and tonal qualities should match the original photograph as closely as possible to retain an authentic look.
Prompt 3: Convert this blurry image into a high-resolution, colour-accurate replica of The original scene. Ensure the colorization is historically and contextually accurate based on the lighting, textures, materials, and known references of the era or environment. Skin tones, fabric types, natural elements (sky, trees, ground), and architectural materials must be rendered with realistic saturation, shading and depth. Preserve all original details such as facial features, patterns, and background elements. Avoid stylization – aim for photorealistic, true-to-life results with balanced contrast and sharpness.
